I really, really liked the scenes with Megynn Fox running in slow motion.

The question is how much attention will be paid to us, the HH fanbase by Hollywood. For a recent example, lets look at the
Transformers franchise.
Michael Bey(keep him away from HH, since it's character, not explosion-driven!) was smart enough to recognize that only Peter Cullen could credibly voice Optimus Prime. He chose Hugo Weaving for Megatron over Frank Welker, however for the first movie. He did try to appease the fanbase by bringing Welker in to voice Sounwave in the second film. Then he further pleased the real TF fans by having Leonard Nimoy(Galvatron is the animated TF movie) voice Sentinel Prime. As a big-time TF fan and collector, I was reasonably pleased by the films, in spite of some questionable plotlines. The overall casting was good, especially in the first and third films.
Hopefully DW, in an executive producing role can keep the HH movie(and hopefully franchise) on track with the vision presented in the books. If he retains significant input over casting, like J.K. Rowling did for the
Harry Potter films it should turn out OK. If some Michael Bey type, or worse- Paul W.S. Anderson, McG, etc. gets their hands on HH- it'll suck.[/quote]
